Discover pre-approval

I just went to check Discover for apre-approval, it looks like the one they used to use has changed. Here's what I go when I entered my info. Has anyone tried the Discover pre-approval site recently? Here's the link https://www.discovercard.com/application/fmo?execution=e1s1

I have not yet applied

I noticed this last night, too.  Unfortunately, it looks like they are taking a US Bank approach and giving generic "offers" instead of preapprovals.  Based on the above giving you an APR range and not a specific rate, the lack of "congrats, you are prequalified for...." and the lack of the opt out prescreen message makes me trust this ZERO.  I would put no faith in it at all, unfortunately.  I have a feeling it's going to be a "you almost have to know going in" approach like US Bank.  I'm not a fan of their new prequal as it offers little to no indication of approval.

Thanks for your input. I fell for the US bank "pre-qualified" offer afew months ago. I know they are not solid pre-quals, but I totally agree with not getting the "Congratulations" message.

Re: Discover pre-approval

It's actually kind of sad that it's useless now. Chase, Citi , Amex and Barclay all have pretty solid prequal links. I think there may be a rise in "Discover approval odds" threads and for good reason.
